In this short but powerful episode, I’ll be uncovering why the most rational, high-performing clinicians are now secretly studying intuition behind closed doors.

We’ll explore:

• Why high-achieving clinicians turn to intuition

• How intuition has been devalued

• The role of intuition in fast, aligned decision-making

• What’s missing beyond credentials

• How to access and honor your intuition

• Letting go of control and stepping into mystery

• What happens when you start owning your intuitive power

• Why mystery doesn’t exist in the purely rational

• How embracing your intuition influences others

• Why your intuitive abilities aren’t meant to be transmitted

This is your sign to tap into your intuition, activate your energetic gifts, and learn to move and clear your own energy. Because, beyond being intelligent and accomplished, you are intuitive.

In this eye-opening conversation, Robyn is joined by one of her very first clients, self-taught mixed media artist Laura Madden, to share her journey of transformation from fitness to life coaching, and ultimately answering her calling in the arts.

This episode explores:

• How Laura transitioned from fitness to life coaching

• Finding the alignment between your gifts and your soul

• Why we start with the neo-personality profile

• Harnessing creativity through upcycling

• Bringing beauty into the world

• Finding fulfillment through art

• Laura’s turning point toward visibility

• Why many artists struggle with self-consciousness

• How art is often dismissed as just a hobby

• Women’s fear of invisibility and becoming irrelevant

Making life changes through art reveals a deeper purpose. You’re not weird for following what fulfills your heart — it’s a process of becoming.

Laura Madden is a self-taught mixed media artist based in Phoenix, Arizona. Originally from Boston, Massachusetts, she reimagines reclaimed materials and found objects—items that might otherwise be dismissed as disreputable or disposable—as the foundation of her artistic practice. In 2019, she made the decision to pursue art professionally after recognizing it as her true life’s calling. Madden’s creative path began with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Physiology from the University of New Hampshire, where she graduated summa cum laude. She spent 15 years working in the fitness industry before transitioning into sustainable fashion— a field that continues to inform her work. Drawing inspiration from her passion for the environment, design, and the intersection of beauty and sustainability, Madden creates layered, textural works that are both elegant and evocative.

In this unflinching and wide-ranging conversation, Robyn welcomes back bestselling coach and author Nicole Cherie Hesse, whose new novel A Shadow Called Sunshine is fiction-ish, soul-coded, and anything but self-help as usual.

This episode explores:

• Why Nicole wrote a novel instead of a business book

• The dangers of turning survivorship into an identity

• How trauma bonding gets masqueraded as empowerment

• The rise of the relatable trauma brand—and why Nicole’s not here for it

• The cultural spell of Twilight, 50 Shades, and “healing” arcs that leave women stuck

• What it means to choose the pattern interrupt

• The So That What movement and how it builds beyond #MeToo

Plus, we reflect on our own experiences with narcissistic abuse, spiritual trauma, and what it means to hold radical responsibility without shame.

If you’ve ever been sold the story that being chosen by a powerful person was the win—this one will set the record (and your nervous system) straight.

The one with the polyamory plot twist

In this inaugural episode of their monthly podcast, Robyn and Alyse are back behind the mic and pulling zero punches. With a name (finally) and a whole lot of opinions, the duo dives into:

• The origin story of this very podcast (spoiler: ChatGPT may or may not be to blame)

• A spicy little detour on the blank slate model still being taught in therapy training (?!), and how that relates to self-disclosure, clean fields, and the ethics of being real

• A collective side-eye toward the Aubrey Marcus “Radical Monogamy” situation and what it reveals about manipulation in spiritual branding

• The difference between intuition vs. influence in the age of algorithmic consensus

• A lowkey philosophical throwdown on trauma-as-performance, the relatability-industrial complex, and why your story doesn’t have to be tragic to be powerful

• AI weirdness, deep-fake Brene Brown, and the art of trusting your own energy over what the algorithm tells you is real

From Barbie-core psychotherapy flashbacks to high-level insights on consent, discernment, and the post-Bewitched era, Robyn and Alyse are here to decode the culture, name the patterns, and say what everyone else is (very politely) not.

New episodes drop monthly.

Welcome back to the House of Sheology, the podcast for spiritually intelligent leaders who are building lives, businesses, and bodies of work that are both profitable and principled.

This week’s episode is part of what I’m calling the After Series—conversations that were recorded before we officially closed the book on the entity formerly known as “Betty,” but that carry essential codes and clarity for this moment in time.

You’re about to hear the audio from one of our most powerful Instagram Lives—a Debriefed conversation with my cohost Alyse Bacine and our guest, Elizabeth Purvis. At the time, we were still inside the unraveling, still metabolizing the lessons. Listening now, from the other side of the spell, the wisdom hits even deeper.

In this episode, we explore what it means to walk the path of eldership, why powerful women so often remain silent in the face of manipulation, and how to find your voice—again. There’s a little tarot (you’ll know which card), a lot of truth, and yes... a brief and very joyful nod to Phoebe Buffay.

If you’ve ever questioned your instincts inside a mentorship…
If you’ve ever wondered why you stayed longer than you wanted to…
If you’re ready to hold yourself—and your students—to higher standards of spiritual maturity and leadership…

This one’s for you.

In this episode, we explore:

• What spiritual eldership really means—and how you know you’re ready

• The role of shame in silencing powerful women

• The nuances of mentorship, projection, and unmet needs

• Why we stayed, how we left, and what we’ve reclaimed since

• How the archetypes of the Empress and that Tarot card shape our stories

• The importance of writing it down—and saying it out loud

• Elizabeth’s return to teaching the Akashic Records

• Alyse’s full-circle moment as a teacher

• And yes… the long-awaited Smelly Cat video makes its official debut. You can watch right here (I apologize in advance) 🎸

Episode 13 — The One Where We Close the Book

After 13 episodes and 11 powerful stories, we’ve arrived at the final chapter of Season One.

This series has been called groundbreaking.
It’s also been called the most important conversation on the internet right now.

In this episode, Robyn and Alyse reflect on what’s been revealed, remembered, and reclaimed—and what happens when we stop centering the so-called leader and start listening to the women who walked away.

We explore the patterns that emerged across every story—trauma bonding, isolation tactics, emotional whiplash, psychic manipulation, and manufactured loyalty—as well as the psychological architecture behind it all. Robyn brings forward insights from personality psychology and spiritual intelligence, and Alyse maps the energetics of trauma-based mind control and recovery.

We also name what Bewitched is—and what it is not.

This was never a cult exposé.
It was never about revenge.
It’s about clarity. Integrity. Discernment.
And the women who chose to tell the truth.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why we didn’t reveal Betty’s identity—and why that matters

• The patterns of manipulation seen across all 11 stories

• The contrast between the Dark Tetrad and the Light Triad

• How personality traits like openness, agreeableness, and unhealed trauma made us vulnerable to harm

• Why the decision to tell these stories now is a reclaiming of voice, power, and consciousness

• What happens next—for us, and for the field of spiritual leadership

Robyn also shares the moment she knew it was time to speak.
And she closes the season with the words her dear friend Barb gives her every time she leaves the farm in Kansas:

“Now, voyager—sail thou forth to seek and find.”

~Walt Witman

Episode 11 of Bewitched: Breaking the Spell After Spiritual Mentoring Goes Wrong

Baljit Rayat was there in the beginning.
The first student.
The one who trusted deeply, taught faithfully, and stayed loyal — even after her intuition told her something wasn’t right.

In this episode, Baljit shares her story of spiritual mentorship turned sideways: the gaslighting, the psychic tracking, the grief, and the moment in Santa Fe when the portal was opened… and something else walked in.

Baljit’s episode arrives on Beltane — a sacred day of fire and fertility, crowned also by May Day, when Catholics honor Mary, the Divine Mother. It also marks the 11th story in the series — a number known in numerology as a gateway, a spiritual master number, a turning point.

What she reveals in this conversation is layered and lucid — including:

• The early years of deep trust and transformation

• Her experience with fawning and subtle coercion

• How she now sees signs of spiritual psychosis

• The energetic aftermath: psychic tracking, sexual energy blocks, and more

• And the unexpected role she may have played as a “handler” inside the system

I trusted her.

I carried her work.

I stayed loyal.

And then I saw what it had become.

This is the final story before the season finale.

The spell is nearly broken.

Some women are with you until the very last page of the story. Brenda is one of them.

In this week’s episode, Alyse and I sit down with Brenda, who knew “Betty” since 2016 and stayed close through two major retreats—including the last one in Croatia.

Her reflections are grounded, insightful, and offer a rare perspective on what it means to stay, witness, and ultimately walk away with clarity.

This isn’t a dramatic tell-all.

It’s a steady, clear conversation about what happens when truth begins to override loyalty.

In this episode:

• Why staying ‘too long’ is often part of the process

• The subtle distortion of gaslighting over time

• How Brenda found her way out—not in a blaze, but with quiet strength

• What it really looks like to reclaim clarity after spiritual confusion

• Why women like Brenda matter to the narrative

✨ Also inside:

• The difference between devotion and entanglement

• The moment the spell breaks—and what comes next

• A few solid nods to our Friends fandom (could we be any more obvious?)
